This is Heidi. She is a Belgian Shepherd (Malinois). We got her from Christianne Chitty on 5th May 08. This is her aged 12 weeks, a few days after she joined us. Heidi's mum is Stellar (Bonvivant Hepona) and Dad is Cliche (Bonvivant des Iles Fidji) who is owned by Jan Ralph. Heidi has her Bronze Good Citizen award and now trains for competing in Agility and Flyball.

Photo Update

Here are some up to date photos of Heidi now aged 13 months.

Agility

Heidi has now started her Agility training with Conor, they had their first lesson last week and will continue to have one a week for the time being. Heidi did really well, she did tunnels, flat tunnels, the tyre, and some contact training on the dog walk. By the end of the lesson she was linking several obstacles together. Conor was told at the end of the lesson that he did well for a 'Novice' handler! (I thought it was funny, he didn't!)

Heidi is now ten months old. She has started swimming with Brian on occasions although she isn't too keen on it! She is getting pretty good at obeidience now, she has her puppy foundation good citizen award and has moved up into the adult class now. She has also been gpoing to puppy agility since she was six months old which she loves and she has also qualified for Crufts 2009! Quite a lot in 10 months!

...and reading!

Heidi has settled in well, she is now nearly 15 weeks old and certainly keeps Brian on his toes. She enjoys her walks and really just wants to do everything that Brian does. We are intending to show her and Conor intends to do working trails with her, as well as some obedience and maybe some agility too. Take a look at some of the photos of Heidi and we will keep you updated on her progress.
